dc.descriptionWe study the dynamic critical behavior of a Swendsen-Wang-type algorithm for the Ashkin--Teller model. We find that the Li--Sokal bound on the autocorrelation time ($τ_{{\rm int},{\cal E}} \ge {\rm const} \times C_H$) holds along the self-dual curve of the symmetric Ashkin--Teller model, and is almost but not quite sharp. The ratio $τ_{{\rm int},{\cal E}} / C_H$ appears to tend to infinity either as a logarithm or as a small power ($0.05 \leq p \leq 0.12$). In an appendix we discuss the problem of extracting estimates of the exponential autocorrelation time.
